SENIORS

We offer a variety of programs and events for older adults. We also serve as a source of information and referral and will help you navigate the sometimes difficult challenges of aging.

Home Delivery

Are you a Brimfield Public Library District resident who is unable to come to the library due to a permanent or temporary disability? We can provide free delivery of books, audiobooks, DVD’s and other library materials to your home on a regular basis. Participants will receive a Brimfield Public Library card and have access to all library resources. Call 309-446-9575 to register.
